10 HEALTH REFORM: SETTING THE STAGE 10

11 Why Health Reform? There are many reasons health reform was critically needed in the U.S. - High uninsured rate: In April 2014, the CBO estimated that 42 million Americans under the age of 65 are currently uninsured; representing about 1 out of 6 Americans in that age group. Without the ACA, the uninsured rate would continue to rise. Unsustainable spending: U.S. health care spending grew 5.3 percent in 2014, reaching $3.0 trillion or $9,523 per person. As a share of the nation's Gross Domestic Product, health spending accounted for 17.5 percent. Lack of emphasis on prevention: Today, seven in 10 deaths in the U.S. are related to chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and cancer, which are largely preventable. Additionally, 75 percent of our health care dollars are spent treating such diseases. However, only three cents of each health care dollar spent in the U.S. go toward prevention. Poor health outcomes: The U.S. spends far more on medical care than any other industrialized nation, but ranks 26 among 36 OECD countries in terms of life expectancy. Health disparities: While inequities related to income and access to coverage exist across demographic lines, population-based disparities are impossible to deny. 11

14 TEXAS CARE ALLIANCE 14

15 About Texas Care Alliance In March of 2013, the Texas Care Alliance (TCA) was created as a central organization designed to build expertise in population health management, capitalize on economies of scale, and accelerate the rapid adoption of clinical and operational best practices. 15

16 Population Health in the ACA Era 16

17 Texas Care Alliance Mission The mission of TCA is to be a member driven coalition of hospitals, health systems and clinicians to improve the health of the various populations of communities served by studying, sharing, and adopting evidence-based best practices that produce superior outcomes and value. Vision TCA aims to be an electronically enabled network of healthcare providers committed to delivering safe, quality, comprehensive care to a defined population using shared evidence-based best practices. 17

19 Achieving Sustainable Cost Savings in Healthcare As we approach costs, we have to look hard at how to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the care delivery process. We can t just pick at the margin by reducing overhead or getting a better deal with a supplier. That s what we ve been doing for the past 20 or 30 years, and it s not getting us where we need to be. We have to actually get into the clinical care process itself to sustainably improve value and reduce costs in healthcare. Michael E. Porter Harvard Business School 19

20 Transformation Requires a System-Wide Approach to Demonstrate True Value 20

23 THE STRATEGY 23

24 We Are Already At-Risk As healthcare costs continue to rise, employers and payers are seeking alternative methods to require providers to demonstrate better quality, safety, service, and value for their healthcare dollar. As an alliance of 10 leading health systems across the State of Texas, the members of Texas Care Alliance are in a unique position to be leaders in demonstrating value and creating a culture of health in our communities. Collectively, TCA member health systems provide health benefits to approximately 94,765 employees and dependents across the State of Texas. Using the 2014 PEPY health system cost data provided by Towers Watson in the 2015 TCA Comparative Analysis Report, the estimated total healthcare spend for all TCA members is $1,019,326,

Consider Enterprise wide agreement for favored nation pricing to TCA members. Improve Management of Non-Domestic Utilization Evaluate development of process for TCA systems to identify admitted patients that are employees of TCA partner systems. Evaluate program to educate systems on post-discharge services available at the patient s home system. Utilization Management Evaluate program to ensure all systems have effective pre-certification, post-discharge and readmission avoidance programs for all care. Case Management Evaluate implementation of programs to include specialized management of all benefits and robust predictive modeling tools to proactively identify potential high cost members. Wellness Evaluate telephonic coaching programs focused on main risk factors; Consider jointly developed wellness program and/or selection of common wellness vendor for all TCA health systems. Retail Pharmacy Evaluate program to eliminate coverage of medications where there are suitable OTC options (Nexium). Evaluate program to improve generic utilization by educating/incentivizing physicians to use generics Leverage TCA Partner Services Create plan design steerage to TCA partner facilities/ specialists for domestic service gaps. Develop second opinion process for providers on complex cases Improve Management of Non-Domestic Utilization Enable clinical information and post discharge plans of patients from TCA partner systems to be transmitted to home facility and PCP at patient's home system Utilization Management UM programs across all facilities are consistent in structure, processes, protocols, and delivery Case Management Consistent assessment and processes across all TCA partner systems Hospitalist Programs All hospitalist programs have similar structure and components across all TCA partner systems (schedules, coverage, census, rewards, etc.) Wellness Telephonic coaching that collaborates with onsite or member services Specialty Pharmacy Plan designs to steer acquisition of specialty medications to specialty pharmacy vendor Utilization Management Centralized programs with virtual nurses that interface with facility nurses, hospitalist, and physician offices Wellness Physician driven programs supported by onsite coaches and web and mobile app enabled information sources Retail Pharmacy Collaborate on common formularies that are narrow and focus on generics first with consistent or centralized P&T approval process Specialty Pharmacy Centralized specialty pharmacy case management unit across all member systems.
